Reliance Foundation chairperson Nita Ambani shared an emotional moment while delivering the keynote address at the Harvard India Conference 2025, revealing how her childhood dream of attending Harvard remained unfulfilled due to financial constraints.
Speaking at the event over the weekend, Ambani, 60, recounted a touching conversation her mother had with her daughters-in-law, Shloka Ambani and Radhika Merchant, on the morning of her speech.
“When Nita was young, we could not afford to send her to Harvard, even though she wanted to go. Now, they have called her to speak at Harvard,” Ambani recalled her mother saying, drawing applause from the audience.
Expressing gratitude, she added, “I just want to thank you all for making my mother so happy today.”
A Special Moment for Nita Ambani
Dressed in a navy blue silk saree, Nita Ambani was welcomed with enthusiasm as she took the stage. Among those in the audience was her daughter, Isha Ambani.
During a lighthearted rapid-fire interview, she was asked to choose between her billionaire husband, Mukesh Ambani, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Her witty response delighted the crowd:
“I think Prime Minister Modi ji is good for the nation, and my husband Mukesh is good for my home.”
Nita Ambani’s Impact and Legacy
The Harvard India Conference acknowledged Ambani’s contributions in various fields, stating that she has impacted nearly 80 million lives through initiatives in rural transformation, healthcare, education, sports, women empowerment, disaster management, arts, and urban renewal.
The conference also highlighted her achievements as a passionate educator, noting that she leads 15 schools, including the Dhirubhai Ambani International School, and founded Jio Institute, which focuses on cutting-edge disciplines.
